My son, keep your father’s commandment, and forsake not your mother’s teaching. Bind them on your heart always; tie them around your neck.
What Did Doug Wilson Say at Bethlehem?
Following the Desiring God 2012 Conference for Pastors, Doug Wilson spoke at the Downtown Campus Wednesday night Connection service, and said …
“Duties are intertwined with relationships (fatherly duties, etc.).”
“Obedience is not at war with grace.”
“Fathers are as much under authority as children are. ‘Don’t provoke your children’ is a command.”
“The duty of giving honor to parents is never relinquished.”
“We tend to want the privileges of rank before the responsibilities of rank. A young son is more likely to ask for the car keys than ask to help with the insurance premiums.”
Pastor Sam Crabtree is Bethlehem's Executive Pastor and Lead Pastor for Life Training.
